Am 8

x Am
you walked into the party
F Am
like you were walking onto a yacht

your hat strategically dipped , below one eye
F Am
your scarf it was apricot
F G C
you had one eye in the mirror
Am F C
as , you watched yourself gavotte
G F
and all the girls dreamed that , they’d be your partner ,

they’d be your partner , and

C
you’re so vain;
Dm7 C
you probably think this song is about you
Am
you’re so vain;
C G
i’ll bet you think this song is about you

don’t you? don’t you?

Am
you had me several years ago ,
F Am
when i was still quite naive
Am
well , you said that we made such a pretty pair ,
F Am
and that you would never leave
F G C Am
but you gave away the things you loved ,
F C
and one of them was me
G F
i had some dreams , they were clouds in my coffee ,

clouds in my coffee , and

C
you’re so vain;
Dm7 C
you probably think this song is about you
Am
you’re so vain;
C G
i’ll bet you think this song is about you ,

don’t you? don’t you?

G F
i had some dreams , they were clouds in my coffee ,

clouds in my coffee , and

C
you’re so vain;
Dm7 C
you probably think this song is about you
Am
you’re so vain;
C G
i’ll bet you think this song is about you ,

don’t you? don’t you?

Am
well , i hear you went up to saratoga ,
F Am
and your horse naturally won
Am
then you flew your lear jet up to nova scotia ,
F Am
to see the total eclipse of the sun
F G C
well , you’re where you should be all the time ,
Am F C
and when you’re not , you’re with;
G F
some underworld spy or the wife of a close friend ,

wife of a close friend , and

C
you’re so vain;
Dm7 C
you probably think this song is about you
Am
you’re so vain;
C G
i’ll bet you think this song is about you ,

don’t you? don’t you? 2
